Book Club It is a new web tool that lets you easily create and participate in online book discussion groups. After registering, you can quickly find a thumbnail image of pretty much any book out there and set privacy options (you can make it public, or can set it so you can only access it if you have the precise url address and participants have been approved). Online polls related to the book can be set-up in seconds.
I’ve written before about how my students create face-to-face book discussion groups. Though you can use a class blog as a similar online complement to something like that, this Book Club It might work a bit better because that’s exactly what it’s designed to be — an online book discussion group.
